Combat Commander
You Sir, are the owner of one of the finest personal defense firearms in existence (in my admittedly not very humble opinion). I realize that Col. Cooper did not much care for the Combat Commander and I would never presume to disagree with him, BUT he was a pretty good-sized dude and could carry a full-sized GM without a problem. Smaller fellers like me find that the Commander barrel and slide don't bump and poke things quite as bad. The .45 ACP loses nothing from the 3/4 inch shorter barrel.
I've got Commanders in all three calibers and love 'em all. The light frame guns are more comfortable to carry but not to shoot, and the alloy frames will EVENTUALLY wear some with extensive shooting. The Combat Commander is built like an anvil and you will likely wear out before it does.
Congratulations, my friend. Carry it in good health!
